A man died and several people were injured on Monday afternoon after an incident on the Goliath roller coaster at Six Flags Over Georgia, outside Atlanta, police said. Six Flags said it was deeply saddened by the incident and was cooperating fully with local authorities. Right-side outlets identify the man who died as Hassan Kariem, 42, a teacher, and report that witnesses said the ride had been closed for maintenance hours earlier and that a worker had been seen test-riding it alone. A niece of the victim has claimed he passed out before being ejected, her father said. Police said in preliminary interviews that the rider was ejected and fell beneath the ride. No official cause has been given in the reports.
